There were several pieces of letter paper, and Richard turned it over, and found that most of what he said was about the situation of "Wood Island", including language, customs, and public security. Obviously, Heidi used a lot of thought.

Richard swept through the content quickly, and got a general understanding of the so-called Mudao, turned over the letter paper, and found that this is some of Heidi's more private words, related to her relatives, read, read, eyebrows Stand up slowly.

　　In the letter, Heidi said that she didn’t know why, she always felt that her relatives were a bit wrong, but could not tell what was wrong.

"...I arrived here, without much effort, and met Aunt Mary. Although she didn't seem very enthusiastic about my arrival, it wasn't too cold-not only did she arrange a big one for her in her castle Room, but also let an old servant take care of me.

　　 It's just... the longer I stay here, the more I feel uncomfortable: the castle is very big, but there are few people at all, even Aunt Mary I can't see it all day long. Taking care of my old servant, the ears are not very good. Sometimes I call him and he can’t hear it. It makes me feel like I am the only one living in a big castle.

　　 Moreover, the food I eat and the water I drink every day seem to be vaguely smelling, but when I taste it carefully, it seems to be absent. Maybe I am too sensitive, but... I am really not used to it.

　　 Recently, I often woke up in the middle of the night, and then heard a lot of footsteps walking around in the castle, the conversation continued, it seems that Aunt Mary held a banquet, invited a lot of people. And when I remembered to take a look, I found that my body could not move at all, like petrified on the bed.

　　Wait until dawn, the sound disappeared, and everyone left, and my "petrified" state would recover. I got up and asked Aunt Mary if someone really came during the night, but Aunt Mary denied it. I asked again why I couldn’t move after waking up. She told me that it might be because I didn’t wake up at all and was just having a nightmare. Wait until I get used to it, just fine.

　　Is it really like this, is it really a nightmare, really because my time is too short to get used to it? I'm a little scared, Mr. Richard if you can come. But I don’t know if you will receive this letter or whether you will come after receiving the letter..."

　　 Richard looked at the letter, his eyes flickering.

　　……

at the same time.

　　 A gloomy castle in the distance.

"Da da da……"

　　 The sound of footsteps sounded, and a rickety old man who looked like a skull in his seventies or eighties appeared. He stepped on the steps covered with green moss, and slowly walked to the upper floor of the castle, toward a room.

　　 carried a tray in his hand, with two plates in it, and a wooden cup. The plate was filled with burnt food of unknown material, and the glass contained a strange wine-red liquid.

"Da da da……"

　　 The old man walked to the room and took a slight pause, then reached out and knocked on the door.

　　 "Boom! Miss Heidi, your dinner is here." The old man made a noise, very husky, like rough stones rubbing against each other, and it sounded a little infiltrating.

　　As the old man made a noise, the contents in the tray changed rapidly, the burnt food became slices of bread, steaks, and the strange wine-red liquid became clear water.

"Squeaky", the door opened, Heidi came out, glanced at the old man's hand, and quickly took it, very politely said, "Eugene, you have worked hard." The old man's name is Eugene .

　　 "This is all I should do, Miss Heidi." The old man responded, staring at Heidi's eyes and said, "I wish you a happy meal and I will come back to pack up the dishes later."

　　 "Okay--" Heidi responded weakly, and put the tray into the room. He took a sip of the water in the glass, frowned, and muttered softly, "It still seems to have a strange smell..."

　　 "That, Eugene!" Heidi turned his head to stop the old man who hadn't had time to leave yet.

　　 "Do you have any orders? Miss Heidi?" The old man slowly turned around and looked at Heidi and asked.

　　 Seeing the old man's eyes, Heidi avoided it subconsciously and didn't want to stare at him. He picked up the glass and whispered, "Well, Eugene, can you give me another drink?"

　　 "Miss Heidi, what do you want to drink?" The old man didn't refuse, but asked very well.

　　 "Which... Do you have tea? The most common one is fine..."

　　 "No." The old man gave a negative answer.

　　 "What's there..." Heidi didn't want to give up.

　　 "There is ale, vermouth, brandy, and tequila." The old man replied, "Which one do you want to drink, Miss Heidi?"

　　 "This..." Heidi's expression was a bit bitter, "Is it all wine, is there nothing else?"

"No."

　　 "Well, I still don't want to change it."

　　 "Well, I'm leaving..."

　　 "Eugene, wait a minute, I want to ask you, where has Aunt Mary gone in recent days?" Heidi suddenly asked what she thought.

　　 There was no change in the expression of the old man, and he looked at Heidi and said, "Are you asking Mrs. Mary, she has always been in the castle."

　　 "Then why am I not seeing her for many days?" Heidi puzzled.

　　 "Maybe Mrs. is busy."

　　 "Then... Then... Can I see her? I want to chat with him. I want to ask her if I can go out of the castle recently."

The old servant looked up, glanced at Heidi slightly, and said slowly: "Miss Heidi, your request, I will tell Mrs. Mary. But as for... the idea of ​​leaving the castle~www.readwn.com~ This is not recommended."

　　 "Why... why?"

　　 "Because recently, it is not very safe outside. According to Mrs. Mary, you better stay in the castle-it's all for you."

　　 "But, when will you stay?"

　　 "This is hard to say."

　　 "Ah, well, thank you, Eugene."

　　 "This is what I should do, Miss Heidi, you're welcome." The old servant said, "Yes, if you don't have the rest, I will leave."

　　 "Goodbye."

　　 "Goodbye, Miss Heidi." The old servant turned slowly and walked down the stairs, disappearing into Heidi's sight.

　　Heidi closed the door and walked back to the room, frowning deeply, feeling that something seemed to be getting more and more wrong.

"Meow!"

　　 There was a meow, and the black cat Mickey brought by Heidi came out of the corner and ran two steps into Heidi's arms.

　　Heidi touched her soft hair, slightly relaxed, and the next moment there was a trace of doubt in her heart: every time the old servant Eugene appeared, Mickey would always hide, not knowing the reason. Is Mickey afraid of Eugene? But how is this possible, Mickey is the bravest cat she has ever raised...

　　 But this is not the reason, and why?

　　Heidi didn’t want to think deeply...

　　 looked through the window and looked outside. Heidi found that the night was already deep. Although she stayed in the castle's room, she also felt a hint of coolness and subconsciously fought a cold war.

　　At this moment, Heidi suddenly felt that she was really a little scared-somehow.
